Reimagining Transport in the West Midlands

The green paper sets out the challenges and opportunities facing the transport system to inspire deliberation with the public over the kind of transport system we want to see in the future. The decisions we make now about how we plan, invest in and manage our transport system will affect us all, as well as deciding what legacy we leave for future generations.
